Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald has caught passes from 19 different quarterbacks throughout his career, while all 79 of Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown’s touchdown catches have come from just one, Ben Roethlisberger.
At the thirteenth annual Sloan Sports Analytics Conference, Fitzgerald said that Brown doesn’t know how good he has it.

Brown has made headlines this offseason lobbying for a trade from the Steelers, the only team he has played for throughout his nine-year career.
Despite being under contract through the 2020 season, Brown has gone to Instagram and other social media outlets to express his displeasure with his quarterback, Roethlisberger, and ask other teams in the league to trade for him.
His outbursts have led to some support from other players around the league, including the Cardinals’ Patrick Peterson.
Whether the Cardinals have interest in the embattled wide receiver is unclear.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter tweeted out that the three teams that have showed the most interest in Brown were the Oakland Raiders, Washington Redskins and Tennessee Titans.
